Footstep back to Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK



Monument

Back to this "city of club" after 4 years, nothing much has change to me, except the people around. Some are still here, some moved away, but all memories remained.

Arrived to this city on 29 oct, midnight. A good friend of mine picked me up and the first night i did, club at LIQUID. A place where i used to club always when i'm still in university. Time flies, people change, age increasing, i somehow don't have much interest in clubs like i used to, but is still good to feel the vibe here again.

A memory i'll never forget

Randomly met some new friends whom are all students here and most of them are singaporean and malaysian and also dancers. We all met in random way, or should i say is faith that brought us all together? 

A bunch of old friends of mine that i knew for years, organized halloween party in the club, and we are randomly being invited to help to performed. We eventually settled everything in 3 hours, big applause to the guidance of michael and elwin for the whole thing. 

The valuable thing i got from this last minute performance was the new friendship and how dance actually did brought us all together and become one. 







The main reason i came back to the UK is for JUSTJAM INTERNATIONAL. I joined this 3 days bboy bootcamp of amazing teachers : Stuntman, Thomaz and David. The workshop blew my mind, is incredible. I learnt so much and i enjoyed every single of the workshop, is tiring as it was a 3 hour workshop each. This is also how i met this malaysian bboy whom now live in bristol and live in the UK for 7 years - Elwin. Extremely a friendly guy.


Today, i had a short walk back to where i studied. Northumbria university. So much memories, the feeling of walkimg around the campus, the student union, the library, the flats. Cant imagine how fast the clock ticks, 5 years + passed.



The happiest night was meeting this bunch of friends. The upper photo was taken in 2010 while the bottom was in 2014. These people taught me so much especially ben and seb. Both are my greatest teacher i ever had in my bgirl journey. I really miss them so much and i know i wont get to see them so soon again but ill come back for sure.

This trip back to newcastle, tiring but worth. Reunion with everyone is priceless. 

Thank you all for making my trip memorable. Ill be back.

Tomorrow will be JUSTJAM INTERNATIONAL, lets have fun and ill blog about it next.
